japanese or broken knees

Reply in thread

i've been doing some 15 minutes of duolingo japanese for almost 10 months now, and i think i know a bit of japanese, and i could vaguely understand lyrics of songs if i stop it and read the text, i think the main issue for some people is that they only do it to "keep the streak", which is the case for a lot of my irl friends, and they barely learnt anything. One of my friend did do a large number of russian lessons daily, and i think he now knows quite a bit of russian (aka, can speak)

i dont think i'll be able to speak japanese in a daily convo in quite a while, cuz im too scared to speak, however im starting to understnad what they are speaking, so its not entirely accurate to say duolingo is pointless, cuz it really depend on ur attitude towards it

also, almost none of the anime kids ive met know any amount of japanese, the two topics couldnt be any more different

holdup taking the side length of the unit square actually makes the working out a bit simpler, because the otherside is 1

idk i just saw the diagonal at first

2l+0.5 sqrt(2l^2)=1
l(2+0.5sqrt(2))=1
l=1/(2+0.5sqrt(2))
=(2-0.5sqrt(2))/3.5
=(4-sqrt(2))/7

also, all the public items on the drive is mean to be public, there are unlisted and private items u dont see
